just thought i would leave a quick note to say that ive added in a like to the Walmer page, as well as the bit about the old navy yard, mainly to make a link to the Time ball page which i created, and know is one of Deals landmarks. Sorry if the stff i added has spelling mistakes in it! Tom.
...but is Walmer much regarded as a separate village, or as part of Deal? I lived in Deal from 1975 to 1994, and personally never had much call to think of Walmer as a distinct village. A walk along the Strand surely confirms this... or are Walmer residents keen on retaining their nominally individual status? With Kingsdown, of course, there is a degree of separation.
I ask out of genuine interest. ormondroyd
Anyone else agree that a section on the town's century or so of coal mining would be relevant? or should there alternatively be a Kent mining industry article which references Deal (if there isn't one already). I can have an attempt if people think it's worth doing. Ormondroyd 09:58, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
I removed the link to the "official town website" because although it exists, it is virtually empty. There is certainly no useful information that would qualify it for inclusion under WP:EL rules. Trying to find anything at all on that website just ends in frustration.-- Shantavira| feed me 18:48, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
I've never heard of either of these, and there's no citation. Where has it come from? Ormondroyd ( talk) 10:58, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
someone seems to have broken the references section on the main article, the items 4 & 5 are effected. not sure how to fix. 2.216.226.50 ( talk) 01:07, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
Someone might want to deal with this.... Nick Cooper ( talk) 23:14, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
as a child I lived in Deal from1947-1956 and there were 3 cinemas then, not two as claimed in the entry - The Odeon, The Royal and The Regent 125.209.161.2 ( talk) 06:04, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
User:Martinevans123 User:PaleCloudedWhite I do not think that a settlement should have a weather box referenced to a weather station outside the area concerned, rather weather boxes should only be used if the weather station is inside the area covered by the article. Hence countries and regions could justifiably have one, but not villages nor many towns. The one in the article should be removed, perhaps leaving a link to a page which justifiably includes one.

A disagreement arises between myself ( ArbieP) and SovalValtos about whether to show four photographs alongside the Notable People section for Deal, Kent. These are the photos in question:
The case in favour is that they add a little colour and life to the words of the article and the mixture of photos makes for an attractive contrast. This is particularly so, for example, between James Arbuthnot and Norman Wisdom.
The case against is that the photographs are better on their linked pages. Using images gives the individuals undue weight, as none of them had a major impact on Deal. They do more to illustrate the individuals than they do for Deal.
Contributors with an interest in Deal, Kent are invited to have their say here

Deal and Walmer are adjoining but separate towns, Civil Parishes or Communities [1]. The current consensus is that there are separate articles on Deal and Walmer rather than mingling material into one article. User:Lloydmayer wishes to add material relevant to the Walmer article to this one on Deal [2] with the justification that 'Walmer is part of Deal'. Should content in the future be mingled into one article or continue to be kept in two separate articles? SovalValtos ( talk) 10:45, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
